ICD-10 Code F15 – Other Stimulant Related Disorders (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F15 – Other stimulant related disorders
What it is
F15 identifies disorders related to other stimulants, including amphetamine-type substances, when the record supports a stimulant-related condition but not a more specific code. Use it when documentation points to stimulant misuse, dependence, or related mental and behavioral effects.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly reported findings include stimulant intoxication, withdrawal, impaired judgment, agitation, sleep disturbance, or other substance-related behavioral changes.
When to use this code
Use F15 when the provider documents a stimulant-related disorder and does not specify a more detailed ICD-10 subcategory. It may apply to encounters involving amphetamines or similar stimulants with abuse, dependence, intoxication, or withdrawal. Check documentation for the exact clinical term and any associated complications.
Do not use for
Do not use F15 for caffeine-related disorders or for stimulant use that is not documented as a disorder. If the chart names a more specific stimulant diagnosis, code that instead.
Coding tip
Match the code to the provider’s exact wording and confirm whether the record supports abuse, dependence, intoxication, withdrawal, or another specified stimulant-related condition.
